"I
know the streets, I know the system, I know poverty, and I know how it feels to
be 15 and not have a safe place to go."
Many
folks have asked me, ‘How do you do it and why have you sacrificed so much to
do this work? The answer comes easy. I look at my daughter and find hope in that
she is living in a world of struggle, of social and political movement. She and
the other five-year-olds will grow up in a more just, more equitable world. She
motivates me.
I
live in a country where we put children in shackles and in concrete cells. Working
together, with righteousness and hope, we can create a country that is about reverence
and reconciliation, not a world of shackles and concrete cells.
